Gizelle Bryant’s Suspicious Response to Ex-Husband Jamal Bryant’s Recent Engagement Revealed in New ‘RHOP’ Trailer
It looks like Gizelle Bryant is not as joyful about her ex-husband’s engagement as she once claimed.
The official trailer for Season 9 of The Real Housewives of Potomac dropped on Thursday, September 12, and the nearly three-minute clip gives fans a pleasant taste of all of the juicy drama that can unfold this season.
One of the topics that might be addressed on the fact show might be the recent engagement of Gizelle’s ex-husband, Pastor Jamal Bryant.
Almost a minute into the trailer, Gizelle has a one-on-one together with her longtime co-star Karen Huger, who asks, “Jamal is engaged. How do you feel about that?”
In May, Pastor Bryant publicly announced to members of his New Birth Missionary Baptist Church that he had found a brand new first lady.
The lady in query was a member of Dr. Karri Turner’s ministry staff. She not only worked in the DeKalb County, Georgia government as a department manager, but can also be an creator, president, and CEO of The Girl Bible, Inc.
Of course, leaving viewers in suspense, the trailer doesn’t reveal what Gizelle’s answer to Huger’s query is. It only shows her responding with what some have found to be a suspicious look, looking down and taking a slow sip from her glass.
Fans responded to Gizelle’s cryptic response, writing, “Jamal is engaged sjjdjdjd I know this woman is mad,” while one other wrote on Instagram, “Queen Gizelle.”

However, more “RHOP” fans don’t seem too thrilled about Gizelle’s storyline. Later in the trailer, it’s implied that she’s going off on her own to mingle, because it shows one other man approaching her while she’s at a celebration.
The man approaches Gizelle and introduces himself, saying, “Hi, I’m Chocolate,” before appearing to lean toward her neck. The clip then cuts to one other scene, leaving fans unsure of Gizelle’s response once more.
One X user wrote: “Another season of Gizelle ‘trying to find love’ and Jamal… imagine how tired we are,” and likewise posted a 3-second video of the girl banging her head against a wall multiple times.
After news broke that Pastor Bryant had popped the query, many wondered what his ex-wife of seven years would say. Some even suggested that Bryan’s former first lady and his future wife were similar in complexion and hair color.
Gizelle not only expressed her congratulations on social media, but in addition responded with class and poise during interview in May on local station Fox 5 DC.
“I’m very happy for him and for the church,” she said, adding, “New Birth really needs a first lady. That’s important. And we need New Birth to be happy with Jamal because he has a lot of tuition to pay. All my girls are going to college. So it’s all good.”
Pastor Bryant and Gizelle were married from 2007 to 2009 and have three children: eldest daughter Grace Bryant and twin daughters Adore and Angel Bryant.
Pastor Bryant and Gizelle’s marriage ended due to the pastor’s quite a few infidelities.
The couple gave their relationship one other probability in 2019, which viewers could see on the Bravo series, but they split again in 2021. Gizelle confirmed that the co-parents were unable to maintain their relationship because she lived in Potomac, Maryland, and Pastor Bryant lived in Atlanta.
That same yr, she told E! News, “Listen, we’ve been hit hard by the pandemic. I don’t think any long-distance relationship can survive not seeing each other. I don’t think any long-distance relationship can survive not seeing each other. But is he still in my life, is he still one of my best friends? Absolutely.”
As for Gizelle’s romantic life, it looks like she’s still open to love, according to the clip. And last yr, she was spotted with “Winter House” solid member Jason Cameron, who’s 16 years her junior. She was previously rumored to be dating “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Cynthia Bailey’s ex-husband, Peter Thomas.
But Gizelle rejected that claim. Performance “Today”stating, “I never dated Peter. I’m friends with Cynthia, I would never do that.”
“RHOP” Season 9 premieres on Sunday, October 6 on Bravo at 8:00 PM ET.
